Opti9 Technologies Achieves AWS Premier Tier Status in the AWS Partner Network
OTTAWA, Ontario--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Apr 17, 2025-- Opti9 Technologies, a leading managed services provider specializing in cloud, security, and application modernization, recently announced that it has achieved Amazon Web Services (AWS) Premier tier in the AWS Partner Network (APN). Achieving AWS Premier Tier Services Partner status distinguishes Opti9 as a proven leader in designing, architecting, migrating, and managing workloads on Amazon Web Services (AWS), demonstrating deep expertise and a strong track record of customer success. 'We are thrilled to reach this significant milestone as an AWS Premier Tier Partner,' said Leon Thomas, Chief Strategy Officer at Opti9 Technologies. 'This achievement validates our deep expertise and ongoing investment in AWS capabilities, enabling us to deliver even greater value and innovation to our customers.' AWS Premier Tier Services Partners are the most experienced partners and recognized as leaders in their respective geographical, vertical, or horizontal markets. They have deep technical expertise with multiple partner program validations and have demonstrated success working with a large number of customers at scale. To attain AWS Premier Tier Services Partner status, Opti9 met several AWS technical requirements, including AWS certifications, capabilities, and implementations, as well as AWS technical and business professional training accreditations. As a Premier Tier partner, Opti9 boasts a team of highly skilled, AWS-trained and certified technical consultants, along with deep expertise in providing professional and managed services for their customers. As an AWS Premier Tier Partner, Opti9 continues to expand its cloud modernization, security, compliance-driven migration, and managed cloud services capabilities.

' Opti9 has been a great partner of ours. Our VMware setup was a private on-prem cloud with two dedicated hypervisors. Over time, we became increasingly limited in available resources, and with a 40% increase in VMware licensing costs approaching, we knew it was time to make a move. Opti9 helped us turn that challenge into an opportunity to modernize by migrating to AWS. The result has been improved performance, reduced overhead, and a more scalable, secure infrastructure. I highly recommend Opti9's CloudOps service as they help with some of the heavy lifting around ongoing maintenance of our services, disaster recovery, and keeping our tech stack modern.
